Erasmus

The Department is actively involved in the Erasmus exchange program, both for incoming and outgoing students.

Incoming students

At our Departement we offer three Master degree courses:

Computer Science

The Master Course in Computer Science prepares the students to address technological future challenges. The course prepares the students with the competences to address autonomously complex issues and problems, by choosing the most appropriate solutions, as well as by creating and developing new enhanced solutions. The acquired competences enable graduates to cover responsibility and coordination positions in industrial contexts, to contribute to the technology transfer and to the research development. Further, these competences enable graduates to have a protagonist role in the development of the society of Information, and, thanks to the interdisciplinary applications of Computer Science, it will be possible to operate in business as well as social environments. The Master Course offers advanced competences in the design and development of software, artificial intelligence, complex systems, data management, and machine learning. The acceptance requirements ensure a homogeneous base competences for all the candidates. These competences will be enriched and completed during a wide range of courses which will enable you to build your own path based on your own skills and expectations.

Data ScienceThe Master Degree in Data Science is part of the Class of Master Degrees in Information Society. The goal of the degree is to provide graduate students, who are coming from different scientific backgrounds, with advanced competences and skills required for the value-driven analysis of large amount of data (so called big data) using cutting-edge statistical techniques and computational models. The degree is targeted to graduate students who have a background in different scientific domains, ranging from Natural Sciences to Social Sciences and Economics. It is designed to have a solid basis in Statistics and Computer science but also a strong multidisciplinary characterization in juridical, social and economic issues.

Theory and Technology of Communication

The Master's Degree (Laurea Magistrale) Course in Communication Theory and Technology belongs to the Class of Master's Degrees in Communication.The Degree Course aims to provide a solid cultural and methodological background in the computer science, psychological, visual and linguistic disciplines in the field of communication, with a strong multidisciplinary connotation, which will allow graduates to enter a job market in which professional figures with skills related to communication as cognitive and social process mediated or supported by technology are required. The main professional outlets are in the fields of digital communication and marketing, content creation and management, and the design of interactive digital systems.The objectives of the course are to provide a high level of mastery of general scientific methods and contents and specific technical-professional knowledge that allow to play roles of high responsibility in the research, development and management of complex user-oriented communication systems and related technologies.The teaching activity has an important project orientation: several courses have a laboratory approach, in which students of different training cooperate in working groups for the realization of projects with a strong multidisciplinary character.

The courses are scheduled in two semesters: the first semester starts 1st October 2018 and ends by the 15th of January 2019, the second semester starts 25th February 2019 and ends by the 14th June 2019. Exams and tests are held in January-February 2019 (Winter session) and since June to September 2019 (Summer session).

To participate in the Erasmus Traineeship and Erasmus Extra EU programs, you have to find the place where you would like to spend a period for the traineeship of at least two months in collaboration with a Professor of DISCo who works on an area of your interest and who can propose you the place (University/Company) where you can spend your Erasmus period.

NOTES

For Erasmus+ Traineeship there are two selection periods during the year, usually in February and July.

For Erasmus Extra EU there are two selection periods during the year, usually in February and July.

For Erasmus+ Study (to attend classes and take exams) there is only one selection period during the year, usually in January.
